Wonders Of Creativity: Odus Smith

Launch after launch, creatives work hard to bring their art to life! With fashion, it’s a threshold people try to break through and overcome daily! With so much talent and research, not all can break through the noise surrounding clothing!

With me, I find myself and think about what I want to create within the noise. I watch and see trends I can avoid or certain styles I can use with my own pieces. Most brands want to create streetwear but are primarily making everyday pieces rather than staples and essentials that people can mix up with their everyday fits! From textures, fabrics, colors, and styles, sometimes creating becomes the noise you have to break through first. Even with knowing and creating exactly what you want, it still takes a lot to make your brand noticeable to the public eye. 

Even though I’m speaking on fashion, this applies to any talent. Sports, music, art, it all takes talent & the motivation to create while being in the crowd. To get yourself out there, you have to show what’s different about you, your brand, and your art to catch the audience you’re expecting! With my brand, unlike sustainable and recycled goods, I use different textures and pieces you would never expect. Yet, I still have to find a way to make my own lane to get out of the noise of everyone having a streetwear brand. I have to find myself and move away from certain concepts to create my own attraction around my art!

No matter what your creations are, take them to the next level by studying and finding what could make your art more incredible! Take time out to really dive into your work and give detailed work to your art! Give it a story and bring it to life. Learn to put the same love & motivation that goes into others in your art! Keep creating and growing! Find what you love and let it move you!
